Heavier style of mixing

[AscendRecording]

This is a mix I have been working on, I'm REALLY into this mix. Any thoughts or critiques would be really appreciated!

Sounds pretty good! Love this genre of music. Sounds like there is a good hole in the middle for vocals if they plan to be there. Only thing for me is when the guitars break up and you hear that one snare hit by itself it sounds a little boxy. Not bad and it works, but it just kinda stuck out to me.

Thank's man and yea I like my vocals to be upfront in your face which is why I got the guitars sounding so wide. I wanted to carve that space out
Glad you like it!

Sick stuff man, i wish i could get a tone like that with my setup. You gotta teach me how to do that gating on the guitar

Thank's man, the guitar tone is an amp sim The gating you mentioned is just slicing the guitar tracks by hand.

Awesome, I'm gonna have to try that

It's just slicing the audio by hand. Here is an example of that from another project of mine.
I hope this helps out!
